Its why I read it. Long may it continue.:) Let the nay-sayers, say what they want, it is their right. If they choose to read a thread that continually upsets them, that is their (rather odd) choice.

I'm pretty sure it is why most people view the thread. 172,758 views in less than 3 months can't be wrong. I think you'd find it hard to find any other thread in the entire forum that's had more hits in such a short time. No need to change anything about it I'd say, the current format is a clear winner.

I don't really agree with that part Chad, on MB's monthly updates for instance, I'm pretty sure we could do without all the "No news" lines, also the "who owns this channel" etc etc could be binned, i just feel it needs shortened a little to be more user friendly, and to the point, regarding what really is coming/new. Just my opinion of course.

I just scan MB's updates for any new info (which is bold) - the rest I don't bother with BUT I would never suggest anything gets dropped as a) somebody else may be interested in it and b) I'd feel rather annoyed if someone started to tell me what I should, and shouldn't, include in my posts.

What's so interesting about "No News"??

For instance, the 'who owns who' information in there may well be of interest to people new to the thread but as I was trying, maybe unsuccessfully, to say was I (nor you nor anybody else) knows what is of interest to other people so we shouldn't be too quick to try and censor other peoples posts.

Chit Chat threads are notoriously hard to moderate as how can anyone decide what is on topic and they too often descend into anarchy,flaming,trolling,baiting.So we have decided no chat threads..
So back on topic please.

Can't see what you are on about, it's not really "chit chat". We are discussing the merits, or otherwise, of what should be in the "coming soon" thread started by MB, surely that's relevant to the thread?

For once, I agree

Turned out to be duff information anyway, the rumour i was told was DisneyHD will launch on VM next Thursday, i've spoken to my source who i trust who has said "it's not launching on VM until at least Summer 2014"
